United Nations
Food systems account for over one-third of global greenhouse gas emissionsTwo thirds of the world believes that climate change is a global emergency.
Most people don't know that food production creates a third of all greenhouse gasses every year and that some foods generate significantly more. For example, beef generates 7x and 12x more carbon per calorie than pork and eggs.
People want to help address climate change, they just need the tools. Restaurants, universities, and food delivery can be a force for change helping their customers to eat well and help the planet at the same time.
